KTM continues to dedicate itself to its enduro two-stroke line. Proof lies in the KTM 300 XC-W TPI. This model has seen significant updates in 2020 and is a dirt bike built to tackle the extreme—we’re talking overcoming the insane technical muddied trails and tight taped-off tracks to unbelievable boulder climbing—KTM didn’t dedicate a Six Days- and Erzbergrodeo-specific XC-W models just for fun. These machines are meant to be ridden hard in every trail and technical scenario you can put them in. The TPI (transfer port injection) contributes to fuel efficiency and clean emissions. As an added bonus, TPI technology alleviates the need for premixing gas and jetting a carburetor, so you can fill up at the pump and leave your jetting kit at home.
